CASH Only you lucky dog. I got 4 out of 5 in the 5/26 Florida Fantasy5, but only got $38. But it was a much shorter matrix.

I understand that the posters don't expect people to play every single number. The point I was trying to make is with the massive number of picks, the hits do not exceed the expected hit ratio. It could just as well be random numbers. Even lucky's Numbers to watch, all states for July 16th contained 107 number sets. The expected hit's are a combination of 5 straights, 15 3 way boxes, 31 6 way boxes.

Thomas,The trick is not just getting the 34 sets of numbers, but being able to narrow them down further for an individual state in order to end up on the plus side at the end of the month. You make the incorrect assumption someone posting several numbers is expecting everyone to play all the numbers. However, I do agree that people who post a multitude of numbers, and then post their own hits on those numbers across the country over a long stretch of time open themselves up to this type of exa...

As an example, taking someones' pick 3 predictions for the month of july. 34 sets of numbers were predicted, all states for the entire month of july. There are 49 different pick 3 drawings per day, so in reality, 34 sets X 49 drawings = 1,666 number sets are played per day. 31 days in July X 1666 number sets played = 51,646 number sets played for the month of July. With the odds of a straight being 1/1000, is it any wonder that this person will get a ton of straight hits and even more boxed hits... [ More ]

as a test???anyone can post 30 numbers any random numbers that come in their head. and maybe just by chance 1 of the numbers can be boxed.

it would be nice to know if any of our lp members won any lg prize at all/ but better to know what sytem they used in deriving the numbers. that way, if they won HOW??? I t seems to me looking at the time and efforts used by lp members that they had to win better than the newbees.to share the (how to) and say U won that way would be a helping hand in the right direction. knowing u would have to share the big jp, thats ok to keep ur secret(how to) but there are prizes like p3/4 buckey 5 an...

In 1993 I have five numbers correct in the Texas Lotto game. The fifth number drawn was 14 and I had the number 41. I still won $1,800, but the $9 million would have been much better.Orangeman

I am surely impressed but the Only Problem with your message is, that according to the Florida Lotery Website the Draw Order was07/12/03 50-13-32-04-48-36which unfortunately would not be that exciting for the TV viewer. He or she lost the Jackpot already right in the start.To Cash, did they pay you in Cash?Good Luck

A question:Assume you buy a $1 ticket on the Florida Lotto, Jackpot $30 million. You watch the draw on television..Ball 1, you hit it!Ball 2, you hit it!Ball 3, you hit it! ( you're in the money now )Ball 4, you hit it!! (big grin happening, heart pounding!)Ball 5, you hit it!!! Yaaa!!!Ball 6.. , well, the screenshot tells the whole story.You just won $5,956.50, but missed $30 million by the narrowest possible margin. How do you feel
